spring-data-relational VS sqlx

What do you think of Spring Data JDBC (https://spring.io/projects/spring-data-jdbc)?

I would ignore the hipster jOOQ and similar and start with Spring Data JDBC https://spring.io/projects/spring-data-jdbc

This makes Spring Data JDBC a simple, limited, opinionated ORM.

Though JPA is fine, and yes hibernate can be used under the hood. When it comes to spring it is mostly what level of abstraction you want. Or you could go with JDBC. And you have a spring data JDBC for having a similar abstraction as to the JPA one.

This is not correct. You're thinking Spring Data JPA [1]. Spring Data JDBC [2] does _not_ use any Hibernate nonsense.

The data moved from the awesome-but-confusing DynamoDB... into PostgreSQL✨, using Spring Data JDBC.

I didn't have much experience with Hibernate and Spring (was using JavaEE prior), it could very possibly be the case, that the team simply misused Hibernate. We might have used n+1 queries, eager loading (although I mildly remember we fixed this), oh and we had the old id generation via sequence in Hibernate, that was really pain to optimize properly. Oracle 11 does not have identity generation. I remembered this only becuase I created an issue at the time. Still not implemented, but can't blame them, who the hell uses sequences as ID generation nowadays.

What exactly are you missing? I haven't really written "boring corporate backend stuff" in a few years but something like sqlx provides everything I've ever needed there.

Badges are the little rectangles you typically see at the top of a crate's README: https://github.com/launchbadge/sqlx/blob/main/README.md

SQLX has entered the chat [1].

Database : SqLite (using sqlx).

The current (well, removed) MSSQL sqlx driver also doesn't support encrypted connections (https://github.com/launchbadge/sqlx/issues/1552), so it might work locally on an unnamed instance but not over the network until they add in the newer driver (which will be closed source but for an OSS project you should be able to request a free license I think)

I'm considering making my own wrapper over lower-level database drivers. There are a lot of features in sqlx that I don't need, and the latest version seems to have removed useful data structures that SQLPage is using. It also removed support for SQL Server.

add Ed25519 to AuthPlugin enum on https://github.com/launchbadge/sqlx/blob/061fdcabd72896d9bc3abb4ea4af6712a04bc0a8/sqlx-core/src/mysql/connection/auth.rs and implement them using these crates:
